269: Are You Using Tools Or Weapons?

At first glance, this question, "tools or weapons?" doesn't make much sense. But, after a conversation with Faith, we recognized that she has the ability to use her choices & her thought as either tools or weapons. She can beat herself up for a choice, effectively using it as a weapon against herself. Or, she can learn from that choice and create a more informed strategy for next time, using it as a tool. She can use her thoughts of guilt, frustration and regret about putting weight back on as a weapon against herself or she can use them as a tool to empower & encourage her. So - your thoughts and your choices - are you using them as weapons or tools? There's so much other great stuff in this episode including thoughts on: Are you making this too hard?
